I’m getting 200 miles absolute max from a full charge in summer. My home charging situation has changed and I no longer have access to a charger overnight. So I’m now faced with going to my local Tesco ~1 mile each way and plugging in for the maximum 3 hours their carpark allows and charging...

I loved the test drive of the A290 for a one off fun spin and based off that I’d probably get one but then being exactly the same situation as I am now 😕.

I really want to love it, but I can’t. I love the way it looks just can’t fall in love with how it is without an engine or gears. The charging and the issues that brings along with being limited on mileage, etc I think has really taken the shine off of it for me. I love that everyone else loves...

I got the R5 because the Clio needs a bit of TLC. So at the moment I’m not using the Clio for lessons, but I aim to get back to using it soon. One of the things I wanted to do was get the RSTuning map removed, so I dropped it off at Engine Dynamics for Andy to work his magic. Must say it...

Yes, have tried that multiple times. Made sure all updates were installed too.

Can anyone help me please 🙏🏼 If I watch any of the Channels from the ‘Guide’ I get Homes Under The Hammer sound over the top 🙈 If I watch through the dedicated channel app it’s ok. Here I’m watching channel 4 or 5 I can’t remember.

May I just say the biggest THANK YOU to @Nik and the rest of the admins, as without you none of this club would be possible. ❤️

My friends car… The middle one is the best 😎

And a manual variant too 👍🏼

As soon as I saw it I said Mazda front end… I was thinking more Mazda 3 though.

Are they new?

It’s not that bad but just annoying!

I’m almost leaning towards a Sh!t damper. Reasons being it appears to aggravate when going over uneven roads or bumps. As you say it’s just expense to fire parts at it and hope. I’m gonna see if I can get someone to drive alongside and see if there’s any telltale shock absorber failure signs.

Ah, I assumed bent. Sorry. It’s not obvious to tell which side it is.

I see, they’ve been on the car less than 2 week so I’d hope it’s not that! @Adey. surely a bent driveshaft would vibrate permanently would it not?

Had the brakes apart the day before yesterday to do the discs all moving freely, disc spins freely by hand. What’s wrong with big red pistons may I ask?

They are ~90k old so it’s quite possible but no play or noises to note of..

About 4 weeks ago I took the Clio for a spin. She had been sat for about a week as I’d been on holiday. Jumped in the car, rolled off the driveway and it felt a bit sluggish. Check the tyres in case one was flat but they were all good. Thought it was maybe because I’ve been used to driving the...

Probably because they’re actually 10x better then a lot of plastic lens headlights out there 🤣

I’m no expert but I’ve seen far worse pass MOT!

They only go on one way on all of them but people still manage to fcuk them up. Biggest giveaway is the retaining clips being difficult to put back on/take off. The beam pattern is set by the way it reflects off the back of the headlight. If it’s inserted wrong the light reflects in the wrong...

I’m fairly convinced most people who fit these bulbs fit them incorrectly which throws the beam pattern off.

Assuming you have a Cup in that case. Make sure the bulbs are in the holders the correct way for starters before you start changing level height.

Oh bother. Pre mot inspection revealed a bit of a blow… I can’t complain about it though can I, show me another original exhaust on similar age/mileage.

lol. That’s my house. You trying to say my house is tiny or Cubs shed is large? 🤣

Another milestone. Since the 5’s been here the Clio has had a fair amount of time out but alas yesterday she tipped over 220k. The lack of use has meant the nsf brake pad is sticking in the caliper so getting a touch hot so I’m hoping to sort that this week. Anyhoo, she still looks good from...

Thanks all, have given me some ideas to discuss with my committee members and make a decision about how to proceed 😎

Primarily it’s going to be an online list of local driving instructors. Will need to have an application form on one page. Mobile friendly for sure as most people are using mobile devices now aren’t they? We have a logo already, it doesn’t have to be flashy but needs to be edited frequently by...

Looking at building a small 4/5 page website but I’ve no idea where to start! What sort of costs to design and build might I be facing? Ongoing costs? Help please!
